Title says it all - is there a general consensus on what armor set looks coolest on male Dervs?

Primeval and bone palace both look fantastic.

The rest of the Primeval looks horrible imo....those extra huge bones hanging from the leggings/gloves just look bad.

FoW. Dyed black.

It's the only FoW i actually like, Paragon FoW is cool too. Other FoWs are.. bleh.
I use Ancient chest however, since FoW chest is way too expensive and actually doesnt show much at all. Try it out, the FoW hood covers all shoulders etc, and is important. Ancient chest fits in nicely.

Vabbian is nice if you like Egyptian style but im not much into it. Even Istani Dervish armor is nice, compared to 1k armors of other professions. Dervish in general has quite good armors.

Hey Kali I always thought Ancient Armor was the Egyptian based one...having the the hood look like Amun Ra and the whole deal...Vabbian is more Arabic Sheik type deal vibe to it.....but I'll stick with mix and match stuff from the Docks. With the exception of Vabbian, Ancient and maybe FoW...most of them look like ass.

This is an opinion question. Opinion questions don't have right answers. >_>

Dammit, the Ancient set's dye-ability is crappy... it's all BROWN... other than that, it's good looking... Vabbian looks peculiar IMO, but...

Hmm.

Uh, im no expert on it, i think it's pharaoh-style egyptian. Arabian (sheik) style is usually just a simple piece of cloth used to cover the body, protect from the dust etc, but overall it's 'light' because of the heat. Like this:

Whereas the egyptian pharaoh style is more like this:

I'm a fan of Vabbian, but not the hood. Elite Sunspear hood goes kinda well with it, though.

If they would let me dye the main body of the Ancient Armor, that would be a hands-down winner - can't imagine anything more ominous and menacing than that armor, dyed black

Vabbian is kind of nice, and looks good dyed white (the "good" counterpart to the "evil" Ancient Armor, sort of) but the hood does need a little work.

I also need to look at the different scythe skins...

It's ebon with 15% while enchanted and 20% enchant mods on it but I primarily run an EDA build so it works for me. I use a Dwayna's when I want to run a build that will make use of the sundering.

I do full elite sunspear dyed black with a Primeval hood dyed black, looks pretty damn good I reckon, I use to have them dyed brown though which also looked pretty wicked.

Sundering isn't that great for scythe anyway

I prefer Zealous myself...I agree completely about the enchanting mods
15% dmg when enchanted totally trumps 15%^50 for Dervishes
and EDA is fun to use...mass blinding FTW

I completed my white primeval BTW yay!

wow lol...i wouldn't mouth off to someone with a tormented scythe.
Personally i run zealous 15% while enchanted 20% enchant scythe, using a grim right now.
as far as armor goes...i like primeval the most, but i'm really sick of all the pure black i see running around. it doesn't even look good anymore.
i dyed mine red+silver+black, came out really nice. I'll post a screenie later

I've got primeval on my dervish. I didn't want to go for black though, too common(and expensive). Instead I dyed it blue+purple, it comes out a nice shade of deep blue.
